"A Homerun by Taylor"

This is my second Mini, I love these acoustics from Taylor. My other one is from the first year they came out, and aged so well, I decided to get another, and this one is every bit as good as the first. Perfect workmanship, beautiful wood, great tone. The electronics are fantastic. My older one has an ES-Go pickup, but the new one has built in electronics and give it a totally different sound, not better or worse, just different and I am completely satisfied with it. Taylor hit a home run with these Mini's. Most comfortable acoustic guitars on the market in my opinion.
Sound
I now own 2 Taylor Mini's. One from the first year they came out. Withstood the test of time. Has an ES GO pickup. The new one is walnut with built in electronics. Totally different sound. Both are good, but the newer one has more dynamic range and richness than the older ES GO pickup, but again, they both sound good.
Features
The built in tuner is a great help so I don't have to use a Snark tuner attached to the headstock while I play.
Ease of Use
Easiest to play acoustic guitar on the market by far.
Quality
My old one is at least 15 years old and still going strong with no issues, so I assume this new one will be every bit as well built and durable as the other I own.
Value
Worth every penny and then some.
Manufacturer Support
Never had to deal with customer support.
The Wow Factor
Wow in the fact that it sounds so good for a guitar so small and easy to play. Satin finish is flawless, although I like high gloss finishes, but every time I pick this up I have to smile, so I guess it's a WOW for me.

"Taylor GS Mini Walnut Guitar"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I love my new Taylor GS Mini guitar. The sound is rich and deep - it sounds like a much bigger guitar. I am 14 years old and petite so I love having a light and small guitar without having to sacrifice any features. It plays easily and has nice action. It also looks beautiful.

Musical Background:

I have played bass professionally in School of Rock on Broadway. I have played bass, guitar & uke at many concerts & events.

Musical Style:

Indie.

Great coverage of the tone spectrum , perfectly sized for the couch or bedroom. I was hunting for a classical guitar when I picked up a GS Mini shopping and simply couldn’t put it down. zZounds delivered another perfectly placed box on my porch within two days.

First of all , the zZounds store is fantastic to deal with. I have purchased two guitars and other items from them.Orders have been delivered on time in two days and the customer service is the best. As for the Taylor GS Mini Walnut , arrived in two days and the package was excellent . Outer box protecting Taylor box along with Taylor protective carry bag case. Guitar is beautiful wood. Only played it for an hour when arrived and great sound.
